duke nukem1 lores platformer demake

[v***@pianoman.cluster.toy]

Made another demake, this time the old EGA Duke Nukem1 game.

In lo-res, as always, as it's so much easier to code for.

I like the graphics. I'm not really able to use the controls very well,
but that may be a "me" problem.

The link from the website to the github page isn't right, you've
rearranged things so it's at:
https://github.com/deater/dos33fsprogs/blob/master/games/duke/

The github makes it seem like you use a Mockingboard, but I could not seem
to detect the code even accessing $C400-$C4FF, let alone trying to play
music.

Also, when I run it on KEGS as a IIgs emulator, the disk tries to move the arm
past track 35 and the game doesn't load. But when I run KEGS as a IIe
emulator, it works fine. I haven't tried to look into what's going wrong yet.

yes, sorry, the controls are tough to use.
Apple II keyboard controls are a pain, since you don't get keydown/keyup
events. I was doing my best to match the feel of the DOS Duke Nukem game
where you can jump while running, and change direction while jumping but
it makes it a bit hard to control.

it only plays mockingborad music in the "bonus" level you get to after
beating level 1.

that's odd. I'm using qkumbas fast rwts code which as far as I know should
work on IIgs, but I haven't tested there. I usually only test on II+/IIe.
